#3 I hope she does it. It would be entertaining beyond all measure to see her blown up by a suicide bomber. One of her music videos is her being killed again and again, so I'm sure she's used to the idea.

Let's not go there, shall we? Lady Gaga may be a lot of things, few of them particularly good, but she doesn't deserve death at the hands of crazed killers. Few people do.

#4 She should just cut Indonesia out of her world tour and let the rabid muslims take the heat for it. See who has more support. If the rabid muslims do she's just putting her fans at risk, if her fans do it might do some good to show that.

She should also announce that she'd be happy to meet any Indonesian fans when her tour hits Singapore or Australia.

Then every once in a while she's back-lit and the niqab, hijab, gunny sack (whatever the hell they wear) is shown to be mostly see through like a scrim curtain. Now, what's she got underneath, Purina kitty chow??

#8 EU, that's because you don't lop people's heads off or blow up foreign tourists invited into your country [for GDP revenue enhancement]. Amazing how a death penalty actually does alter people's behavior.
